In her first television interview as the Democratic nominee for president, Vice President Kamala Harris on Thursday defended her ideological shift to the political center, saying she would appoint a Republican to her Cabinet but promising ¡°my values have not changed.¡±

She also curtly rejected former President Donald Trump¡¯s baseless claim that she recently ¡°became¡± Black, according to partial excerpts released by CNN.

The full interview will air at 9 p.m. EST on CNN.
